We have been finding ways to break numbers apart and put them back together in math investigations. One of the games we have played this week is the On and Off game. In this game, your child starts out with a certain number of counters (such as 10) and they drop those counters on top of a piece of paper and see how many land on the paper and how many land off the paper. They record their findings to discover different ways to make their total number (such as 8 are on the paper and 2 are off...so 8+2=10). This is a game that you can play at home with your child. You can use any kind of counter (such as coins or buttons). We sent home a game sheet in the folder you received at Open House.
